obama: well, for 18 months he's been running on this tax plan and now, five weeks before the election, he is saying that is big old idea is nevermind. the fact is that if you are lowering the rates the way you describe, then it is not possible to come up with enough deductions and loopholes that only affect high-income individuals to avoid either raising the deficit or burdening the middle-class. it is not. it is arithmetic. now, governor romney and i do share a deep interest in encouraging small business growth. so at the same time that my tax plan has 30 lower taxes for 98% of families, i also lower taxes for small businesses 18 times. what i want to do is continue to tax rates, the tax cuts we put in place for small businesses and families. but i have said that for incomes over $250,000 a year, that we should go back to the race we had when bill clinton was president, when we created 22 million jobs, what from deficit to surplus and created a whole created a lot of millionaires to boot. the reason this is important is because they doing that we can not only reduce the deficit. we c

if you elect obama. i happen to believe that's true and that's why i'm not reluctant president obama, but it sounded very forward-looking slogan about what that romie will do. again, it's hard to blame a guy who wants to get reelected with a pretty narrow casting approach to democratic and independent constituencies to try and scare them about the want them women and all that. the question is am a little less pessimistic that that means they can't govern effectively because i do think reality matters as we've been saying. we will have a cliff and all kinds of ways. the real cliff and 2013 is we can't sustain this deficit for too long. we can't keep printing money and expecting the world to take it. the economy is slow and may be going into another depth. there are foreign policy challenges. i think the next president will have a moment between november 7. i agree, he has to begin in the summer fall of 2013 to do a lot. i would bet contrary to conventional wisdom that would be huge legislative agenda. i t
